Hello everyball!<\/p>\n

The new update is finally ready and with it you can now enter the arena in Rhombus Square<\/b> and take on several combat challenges! Also, more quests!
\nOh and in case you’re wondering about the version number: we decided to call this one version 1.1<\/b> instead of 1.0.4<\/b>, because the arena is a pretty major feature<\/b>!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Rhombus Square Arena<\/h2>\n

\"\"
\nThe arena in Rhombus Square is finally open! In it you can take on several Cups<\/b> each featuring a list of combat challenges!<\/p>\n

    \n
  • The Rookie Cup<\/b> with regular enemies you’ll meet in the field all over CrossWorlds<\/li>\n
  • The Seeker Cup<\/b> with dungeon enemies as well as several smaller boss fights<\/li>\n
  • The Dungeon Boss Cup<\/b> with all the boss enemies of the temples!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    In all cups, the enemies and bosses are upgrade to level 55-60<\/b> to still pose a challenge to your end-game character!
    \nAdditionally, the Rookie Cup can also be played with the whole party in Team Mode<\/b>!<\/p>\n

    \"\"
    \nEach cup features a list of rounds<\/b> that can be fought individually as well as a rush mode<\/b> where you can take on all the round in one go.<\/p>\n

    \"\"
    \nYour performance in each round and rush mode will be evaluated with a score and rewarded with medals<\/b>. For each medal you will then collect Arena Coins<\/b> that you can exchange for rewards such as new equipment, but also decorative add-ons like…<\/p>\n

    \"\"
    \nFancy auras<\/b>!<\/p>\n

    \"\"
    \nAnd… PETS<\/b>!<\/p>\n

    Yes. CrossCode now has pets. They will follow you around. You can even pet them<\/b>. But that’s it.<\/p>\n

    New S-Rank Mode + Quests<\/h2>\n

    \"\"
    \nFor this update we enhanced the Combat Rank system, adding a couple more effects when changing rank as well as a special S-Rank mode + combat theme<\/b>! Also, enemies will now respawn faster during S-Rank making it easier to keep up a long combat streak.<\/p>\n

    Note: If you don’t like the new effects and music and would like to have things as they used to be, you can disable everything in the options menu<\/b> under interfaces<\/b>!<\/p>\n

    As for quests<\/b>, you will find more in this update as well! One is in the final Arid Breeze Quest in Ba’kii Kum<\/b>, the other one you will find in Sapphire Ridge<\/b> – check the bulletin board!<\/p>\n

    Additionally, there is a new challenge mode<\/b> for the Turret Defense<\/b> mini game, complete with a few new rewards to collect!<\/p>\n

    And finally, you’ll find a couple more NPCs<\/b> hidden throughout CrossWorlds!<\/p>\n

    Oh, and this update also comes with a couple new music tracks<\/b>! Here a little preview:<\/p>\n

    \n

    The CrossCode 1.1.0 Update is OUT NOW!<\/p>\n

    For this update, I created new music tracks. Here are some snippets! #gamedev<\/a> #gameaudio<\/a> #CrossCode<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/jlhlggYYV0<\/a><\/p>\n
